I got some quick questions that i need answered as soon as possible plzzz. I hear people on this site mention you can force flower by setting you lights to 12/12 what exactly do these numbers mean??? What's the earliest I can do this? Also for lighting would 2 150 watt light bulbs work to get a plant? I don't care if it wont be the best quality i just want it to be able to survive. Please answer as soon as possible.

12/12 mean that 12 hours light on and 12 hours light off (completely dark). The earliest you can do it is as soon as your plants have 3 set of true leaves.

what kind of light bulbs, that should definately be enough for a plant and youd still get a nice yield.
Give the plants 24 hours of light or 18 hrs light 6 of dark. then when you want to flower you switch to 12hours light 12 of dark. www.overgrow.com/growfaq go to this website

Your 2 150 W lightbulbs...are these the standard household (Tungsten) bulbs like you put in lamps? If so, you're plants will probably die with those.

they could live, but youd probably have a metre tall plant with about 4 or 5 leaves and no buds, this is if they are incandescent
